An automobile-mount diesel engine with a turbocharger is provided, which includes an engine body with the turbocharger, the engine body being mounted in the automobile and supplied with fuel containing diesel fuel as its main component, a fuel injection valve arranged in the engine body so as to be oriented toward a cylinder of the engine body and for directly injecting the fuel into the cylinder, an injection control module for controlling a mode of injecting the fuel into the cylinder through the fuel injection valve, and an EGR amount control module for adjusting an amount of EGR gas introduced into the cylinder. EGR and fuel injection are adjusted based on speed-load conditions of the engine.

1. A method of controlling an automobile-mount diesel engine with a turbocharger, the engine being supplied with fuel containing diesel fuel as a main component, comprising: a. when the engine is within a range where a load is relatively low within a predetermined operating range where a rotation speed is low and the load is partial, the method including: switching to a first injection mode that includes introducing EGR gas into a cylinder of the engine;performing a main injection where the fuel is injected at or near a top dead center in a compression stroke to cause a main combustion that mainly includes a diffusion combustion; andperforming a pre-stage injection where the fuel is injected prior to the main injection according to a predetermined injection ratio with respect to a fuel injection amount of the main injection; andb. when the engine is within a range where the load is relatively high within the predetermined operating range, the method including: switching to a second injection mode that includes introducing the EGR gas into the cylinder of the engine, performing the main injection,performing the pre-stage injection with an injection ratio lower than an injection ratio in the first injection mode, andperforming a post-stage injection where the fuel is injected after the main injection to extend the main combustion; andc. when the engine is at a timing in which the injected fuel reaches outside a cavity formed in a top surface of a piston, the method including: partially performing the post-stage injection. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the first injection mode includes a number of pre-stage injections, and the second injection mode includes a lesser number of pre-stage injections than the number of pre-stage injections in the first injection mode. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the operating range of the engine body is divided into a low rotation speed range and a high rotation speed range, and wherein the predetermined operating range is a relatively high rotation speed range within the low rotation speed range. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein, in the first injection mode, an injection control module performs the post-stage injection at a timing in which at least a part of the injected fuel reaches within the cavity, and, in the second injection mode, the injection control module performs the post-stage injection twice at the timing in which at least the part of the injected fuel reaches within the cavity and the timing in which the injected fuel reaches outside the cavity of the piston. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein a timing of performing the main injection is earlier in the second injection mode than in the first injection mode. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein, within an operating range where the load is higher compared to the predetermined operating range, the introduction of the EGR gas into the cylinder is stopped and the injection ratio for the pre-stage injection is reduced to be lower than an injection ratio in the second injection mode. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein, within the operating range where the load is higher compared to the predetermined operating range, the number of the pre-stage injections is reduced to be less than a number of injections in the second injection mode. 8.
